Genes affected
KCNH2 (HGNC:6251): (potassium voltage-gated channel subfamily H member 2) This gene encodes a component of a voltage-activated potassium channel found in cardiac muscle, nerve cells, and microglia. Four copies of this protein interact with one copy of the KCNE2 protein to form a functional potassium channel. Mutations in this gene can cause long QT syndrome type 2 (LQT2). Transcript variants encoding distinct isoforms have been identified. [provided by RefSeq, May 2022]

The c.3105_3112delGGGCGACG pathogenic mutation, located in coding exon 13 of the KCNH2 gene, results from a deletion of 8 nucleotides at nucleotide positions 3105 to 3112, causing a translational frameshift with a predicted alternate stop codon (p.D1037Efs*79). This alteration occurs at the 3' terminus of theKCNH2 gene, is not expected to trigger nonsense-mediated mRNA decay, and only impacts the last 10% of the protein. However, premature stop codons are typically deleterious in nature and a significant portion of the protein is affected (Ambry internal data). This variant is considered to be rare based on population cohorts in the Genome Aggregation Database (gnomAD). Based on the supporting evidence, this alteration is interpreted as a disease-causing mutation. -
